In a distant second place, The Boy Next Door opened to an estimated $5.7 million at 2,602 locations. That's a bit lower than The Call's $6.18 million, but is noticeably higher than Jennifer Lopez's last starring vehicle, The Back-Up Plan ($4.26 million). The Boy Next Door should finish the three-day weekend with $15 to $17 million.The Wedding Ringer took third place with an estimated $3.3 million, which is off 53 percent from its opening day. For the weekend, the movie should earn at least $10 million.Paddington added $2.6 million—off 44 percent—for a new total of $30.3 million. Its second weekend should wind up in the $11 to $13 million range.Taken 3 rounded out the Top Five with $2.07 million (down 57 percent). To date, the final installment in the action franchise has earned $70.5 million.

Johnny Depp's Mortdecai took eighth place with a horrible $1.47 million debut. That's actually lower than Depp's The Rum Diary, which opened to $1.84 million back in October 2011. It's also barely above last weekend's Blackhat, which took in $1.39 million on its first day. This is a stunningly poor opening for a movie with a handful of stars that's been marketed quite heavily in recent weeks; for the weekend, it should wind up with just over $4 million.

In ninth place, Strange Magic flopped with an estimated $1.3 million. It's on track to earn less than $5 million for the three-day weekend, which will qualify as one of the worst debuts ever for a movie playing at over 3,000 locations.
